Option 1 (Recommended Method)
Flexible stainless steel gas connector:
If local codes permit, use a new exible stainless steel gas
N
connector (Design Certied by the American Gas Association
or CSA International) to connect your dryer to the rigid gas
supply line. Use an elbow and a 3/8" are x 3/8" NPT adapter
tting between the stainless steel gas connector and the
dryer gas pipe, as needed to prevent kinking.
Option 2 (Alternate Method)
Approved aluminum or copper tubing:
Lengths over 20 ft. (6.1 m) can use 3/8" approved tubing
N
(if codes and gas supplier permit).
If you are using Natural Gas, do not use copper tubing.
N
3/8" are x 3/8" NPT adapter tting between dryer pipe and N
3/8" approved tubing.
Lengths over 20 ft. (6.1 m) should use larger tubing and a
N
different size adapter tting.
If your dryer has been converted to use LP gas, 3/8" LP
N
compatible copper tubing can be used. If the total length
of the supply line is more than 20 ft. (6.1 m), use larger pipe.
NOTE: Pipe joint compounds that resist the action of LP
gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON
®†
tape.
Dryer gas pipe
The gas pipe that comes out through the rear of your dryer N
has a 3/8" male pipe thread.
